Okta is an identity and access management service for web-based applications.

Torq enables quick and easy integration with Okta, so you can automate anything and everything within moments. Torq's public Okta steps include:

List All Okta Users
Add User to Group
Enroll Okta SMS factor
List User Assigned Roles
+49 more...

If you don't see a step you need, you can create your own in various ways, such as using the Send an HTTP Request step or Torq’s Step Builder, and share it across your organization.

2. Optionally, add an authentication header.
  1. Give the secret a name.

1. Name: Give the Event Hook a meaningful name.
2. URL: Paste the URL from the Okta integration you created in Torq from step one.
3. Authentication field: Paste the authentication header name you created earlier.
4. Authentication secret: Paste the authentication header secret you created earlier.
5. Requests: Add custom header fields and subscribe to one or more events to send to Torq.
Finalize: Click Save & Continue.

Now that you've successfully created an Okta trigger, you can build your first Okta-initiated workflow!

Create a Token: Click Security > API > Tokens > Create Token.
Fill in the Details:
1. Give the token a meaningful name
2. Use the dropdown menu to select the relevant origin for API calls made with this token.
Finalize: Click Create Token.
Save Token: Copy the API token and save it to use later in Torq.
Finalize: Click Ok, got it.

Step Two: Create an Okta Steps Integration in Torq

Navigate to Integration: Go to Build > Integrations > Steps > Okta and click Add.
Fill in the Details:
1. Give the integration a unique and meaningful name.
2. In the API Key field, paste the API token that you saved in step one.
3. In the Okta Domain field, paste the section of the URL from your company's Okta app (ex. my-company.okta.com).
Test: Click Test Integration to verify the integration is configured correctly.
Finalize: Click Add.

FAQs

Okta may limit the number of event hooks you can create, which limits the number of trigger integrations you can set up within Torq. If you hit the event hook limit, subscribe to all events in Okta and use trigger conditions within your workflows to specify when a workflow should be triggered.
